My study will be about improving L2 speakers' suprasegmental (stress and
intonation) pronunciation features by using multimedia and focus on form
discussions.

There will be some focus on forms practice, but that is necessary.

This is a qualitative case study and I only need three to four participants in
order to have the group discussions. This study is to not only improve your own
suprasegmental features, but learn how to implement the methods used in the
study in your own classrooms. My goal is to make it easier for teachers to teach
pronunciation in a fun, easy, and motivating way.

Requirements:

The participant has at least upper intermediate to advanced English
proficiency with a good grasp on segmental features (no issues with making
correct phonetic sounds).

The participant has no history of living abroad in an English L1
country.

(Exception: Issue with suprasegmental features even after living abroad in
an English L1 country. If this is the case, a brief interview will be conducted
for the study.)

The participant is flexible in terms of hours of availability as
instruction/treatment time still needs to be decided. We will be meeting three
times a week for one month, but hours may vary. I understand that most of us are
working full time and I will be, too. I would like to work around all of our
schedules. : )

The participant has enthusiasm!

Please e-mail me at coleencdwyer@gmail.com if you are interested! I promise this
will be a fun study and snacks and drinks will be provided at every session. We
will have a lot of meaningful conversations and improve our skills!
